The CRJ is unusual for a regional airliner developed from a business jet in that it has four-abreast seating in a stand-up cabin. In its latest NextGen iteration, it features redesigned cabin panelling to maximise window light, LED cabin lighting and larger overhead luggage bins. The common flight-deck of the CRJ family means a common type rating which eliminates the need for crew conversion throughout a mixed fleet. One of Lufthansa’s 88-seat CRJ-900 NextGens is seen here departing Edinburgh.
